hop
One-footed spring
Hop characterizes quick vertical movement that may proceed horizontally as well, similar to jump.
You can hop into the air or hop from one boulder to another.
If you hop a fence, you jump over it.
A hop is an instance of doing this, and usually suggests a short distance: We live only a quick hop from Portland.
A different word hop, usually used in the plural hops, represents a vine of the hemp family whose fruits are used to give a slightly bitter flavor to beer.
